Today, the State Department of Public Instruction released SAT scores for the 2005-06 school year.  This past year we tested 2,923 students, compared to 2,845 during 2005.  The following Chart shows the GCS scores, as well as the state and national average, and the scores of similar size and surrounding school districts.  The scores represent sub-totals, which includes reading and math and excludes writing.  I will send you additional information under separate emails.
